Genes affected
APC (HGNC:583): (APC regulator of WNT signaling pathway) This gene encodes a tumor suppressor protein that acts as an antagonist of the Wnt signaling pathway. It is also involved in other processes including cell migration and adhesion, transcriptional activation, and apoptosis. Defects in this gene cause familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), an autosomal dominant pre-malignant disease that usually progresses to malignancy. Mutations in the APC gene have been found to occur in most colorectal cancers, where disease-associated mutations tend to be clustered in a small region designated the mutation cluster region (MCR) and result in a truncated protein product.

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1627-3C>A intronic variant results from a C to A substitution 3 nucleotides upstream from coding exon 13 in the APC gene. This alteration has been observed in at least one individual with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with APC-related disease (Ambry internal data). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will not have any significant effect on splicing; however, RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 13 of the APC gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the APC protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with APC-related conditions. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
